Definitions

  • the invention relates to an aerofoil assembly and a method of assembly of an aerofoil assembly.
  • Aerofoil assemblies such as stages of a gas turbine compressor or turbine typically comprise an array of blades 10 which are located in a supporting disc or drum 12 and have a damping member 14 disposed between the blades 10 in order to achieve a desirable vibration characteristic.
  • a damping member 14 disposed between the blades 10 in order to achieve a desirable vibration characteristic.
  • Figures 1 to 3 PRIOR ART
  • the damping member 14 is located in a compartment 16 formed between adjacent blades 10.
  • the damping member 14 as viewed in Figure 1 , has a "cottage roof” type cross section in that it is part triangular (or “peaked”).
  • Figures 2 and 3 which are sectional views on arrow "A" in Figure 1 (PRIOR ART) the damping member 14 is largely rectangular in cross section.
  • the compartment 16 is formed by the provision of a recess 18 in each blade 14, and a shelf 20 at either end of the recess 18 forms a support structure 22 for the damping member 14.
  • the member 14 is trapped in the compartment 16 by the shelves 20 since the overall span or longitudinal length "x" of the damping member 14 is greater than the distance between edges 24 of the shelves 20.
  • part of the method of assembly requires at least one of the blades 10 to be slid out of the array to allow for a locking member 26 to be inserted in a groove 28, on the rear or forward edge of the blade, in direction B.
  • the damping member 14 must be small enough to allow the blades 10 to move relative to one another to allow access to the groove 28, and yet the damping member 14 must be long enough to stay trapped between the blades 10 when the blades 10 are realigned. Manufacturing tolerances may result in the damping member 14 or support structure 22 being undersize and hence the damping member 14 may fall out. In this eventuality damage may be caused to the blade disc 12 and other components it comes into contact with.
  • EP 1617044 discloses a turbine blade which includes an airfoil, platform, shank, and dovetail.
  • the platform includes a first side disposed along the pressure side of the airfoil, and an opposite second side disposed along the airfoil suction side.
  • the platform second side includes an integral damper keeper disposed below the midchord of the airfoil, and is locally thinner at the forward and aft ends of the platform second side for reducing blade weight.
  • a damper member is installable on the damper keeper.
  • the damping member must be small enough to allow the blades to move relative to one another to allow access, and yet the damping member must be long enough to stay trapped between the blades when the blades are realigned.
  • an aerofoil assembly comprises:
  • the projections of the damping member allow relative axial movement of the blades during assembly, but prevent the damping member from becoming dislodged from the compartment during assembly and/or operation of the assembly.
  • the provision of projections on the damping members means that no modification to any feature of the known rotor blades is required in order to achieve the advantage.
  • This is of benefit as the damping members are much simpler structures than the rotor blades and carry less load. Hence alterations to the design of the damping members impinge less on the integrity of the aerofoil assembly than would alterations to the rotor blades.
  • At least one groove is provided along a leading and/or trailing edge of the stem portion of at least two of the blades and a locking member is located in said groove(s), thereby tying said at least two blades together.
  • the method comprises the further step of translating the locking member in a second direction such that it is inserted into the groove of the previously misaligned rotor blade.
  • the method of assembly using the damping member of the present invention is advantageous as there is a risk with the method of assembly of the prior art that, because of the need to allow relative axial movement of the blades during assembly, the damping member and/or shelves may be undersized. Such under sizing may result in the damping member of the prior art becoming dislodged from the compartment during assembly and/or operation, resulting in damage to engine components.
  • the projections of the damping member of the present invention ensure that the damping member has a longitudinal dimension which is longer than the largest expected distance between the edges of the shelves.
  • FIG. 4 shows a sectional end on view of part of an aerofoil assembly according to the present invention.
  • a disc 30 is provided with retaining slots (mounting features) 32 into which blades 34 are slid and located.
  • Each blade 34 has a root portion 38, a stem portion 40 an aerofoil portion 42, which is defined by a leading edge 44, a trailing edge 46, a pressure surface 48 and a suction surface 50.
  • leading edge leading edge
  • trailing edge a trailing edge
  • pressure surface and “suction surface” will relate to all features of the root 38 and stem 40 portions which share the same edge or side with the aerofoil surface.
  • a damping member 52 is disposed between each of the blades 34 in a compartment or well 60 which is defined by cavities or recesses 62,64 provided on adjacent pressure/suction surfaces 48,50 of stems 40 of the blades 34.
  • the cavities 62,64 provide a support structure 66 for the damping member 52, the support structure taking the form of a shelf 68 which extends from the trailing and leading edge of the recesses 64.
  • the damping member 52 As with the prior art of Figure 1, 2 and 3 , the damping member 52, as viewed in Figure 4 , has a "cottage roof " type cross section in that it is part triangular (or “peaked"). Viewed in direction A (and as more clearly shown in Figures 5 and 6 ) the damping member 52 is largely rectangular in cross section. A first projection or lug 70 is provided on one of the corners of the member 52 and second projection or lug 72 is provided on a diagonally opposite corner, giving the damping member 52 a "stepped" profile. Each projection 70,72 is less than half as wide as the main body of the damping member 52.
  • the "lugs", “steps” or “projections” extend away from the plane edge of the damping member such that the span or overall longitudinal length "y" of the damping member 52 is greater than the distance between the leading and trailing edges 73 of the shelf 68. That is to say, the lugs 70,72 extend beyond the length of the main body of the damping member 52 such that the damping member 52 is longer than the largest distance between edges 73 of the shelves 68 of the support structure 66 when the platforms 40 are assembled and aligned as shown in Figures 4 and 5 .
  • each of the blades 34 and each of the damping members 52 are substantially of the same design.
  • the stepped damping member 52 is present between less than all of the compartments 60 formed between the blades 34.
  • a groove 74 is provided in the trailing edge 46 of each of the stem portions 40.
  • the groove extends circumferentially such that, when the array of blades 34 is assembled and aligned, a continuous groove 74 is formed around the array, which is defined by radially extending parallel walls and an opening which is radially inwards of a closed end.
  • the locking member 76 is a flat strip which has dimensions which correspond with those of the groove 74 such that the member 76 can be slid easily along the groove 74 during assembly but will interfere sufficiently with the groove 74 such that the member 76 maintains its desired circumferential and radial location relative to the groove 74.
  • the strip has sufficient length to tie only two blades 34 together.
  • the strip has sufficient length to tie more than two but less than all of blades 34 together.
  • the strip has sufficient length to tie all of the blades 34 together.
  • the strip may be arcuate and radially outwardly resilient such that it maintains its position in the groove 74.
  • Such an assembly is assembled by the following method.
  • a set of rotor blades 34 are assembled adjacent one another to form a complete array prior to assembly on the disc 30, with a damping member 52 present between at least two adjacent blades 34, the projections 70,72 resting on the support structure 66.
  • the blades 34 are slid as a complete array onto the disc 30 such that the trailing and leading edges of the blades 34 are in alignment with one another.
  • the blades 34 cannot be slid onto the disc 30 one at a time since the shroud (not shown) of the blade 34 has a different stagger angle to that of the retaining slots 32.
  • One of the blades 34 which part-houses the damping member 52, is axially displaced relative to the others to allow access to the groove 74 as shown in Figure 6 .
  • Sliding the blade 34 in this way disengages the projections 70,72 of the damping member 52 from the shelves 68 and engages the other corners of the damping member 52 (those without lugs/projections) with the support structure 66.
  • a locking member 76 is then inserted in the groove 74 in a first direction B along the length of the groove 74 (as shown in Figure 6 ), thereby tying at least two adjacent blades together.
  • each locking member 76 is inserted into groove 74 to tie the remaining blades 34 together. If more than one locking strip is inserted into groove 74, each locking member 76 is pushed along the groove 74 by the insertion of a further locking member 76. When the locking strip(s) 76 is/are fully inserted, the misaligned rotor blade 34 is brought back into alignment (as shown in Figure 5 ). Thus the projections 70,72 are engaged with the shelves 68 and the other corners of the damping member 52 (those without lugs/projections) are disengaged with the shelves 68.
  • a locking member 76 which is already inserted into the groove 74 of the adjacent blade 34 is then slid into the groove 74 of the platform 40 of the previously misaligned blade 34, thereby tying these two blades 34 together.
  • several blades 34 of the array are misaligned in order to insert locking members 76 at different positions around the array.
  • a specially shaped separate locking member (not shown) is inserted in the groove 74 of the previously misaligned blade 34 and the adjacent blade 34 in order to tie them together.
  • the stepped damper 52 cannot fall out of its retaining compartment 50 because the longitudinal length "y" of the damper 52 is greater than the distance largest between the edges 73 of the shelves 68.
